The necessity of the power of restricting the Press in India, was forcibly urged by Mr. WYNN and Dr. PHIL LINIORE, as essential to the maintenance of our dominion, but the question rather turned upon the point, whether in the mode adopted for this pur pose in Mr. BUCKINGIIANI'S case, injustice had not been used towards him. His grievances, however, will now be fully investigated; and the matter set at rest. We shall, hereafter, recur to the question of the Free Press in India. His Majesty's Ministers consented to Mr. Bux- TON'S motion for a Select Committee, to inquire into the State of the Slave Trade in the Mauritius, Mr. CANNING being of opinion, that it would have a bad effect in Foreign Countries, if Parliament mani fested a disposition to refuse Inquiry on . this subject, after the public accusations made against the local Government of one of our possessions. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, and Mr. J. WIL LIAMS, respectively, postponed to the 18th inst. their intended motions respecting the Court of Chancery. On the motion for the Second Reading of the Bond ed Corn Bill, Mr. H. SUMNER moved, and Mr. TREMAYNE seconded, an amendment for an adjourn ment ; but there being no other Ultra Patriots in Grain, this Bill was read by a majority of 174 to 2 ! In answer to a question put by Lord MILTON, whether it was the intention of Government to pro propose or agree to a Public Grant for the relief of the distressed Districts, Mr. CANNING stated, that when the Motion of Mr. P. MOORE which had been at his request postponed, should be brought forward ; he would be prepared to give an answer. This reply of the Right Hon. Gentleman induces us to hope that the suggestion which we were the first to make, that the sum arising from the duty of Corn now to be admitted into the market should be applied to the relief of the manufacturing Poor, will be acted Some of the Morning Papers are very violent against Ministers, because, forsooth, the Committee on Scotch Banks have been satisfied by the evidence pro duced before them, that it would be inexpedient to alter the currency of that Kingdom. Obstinacy is surely no proof of talent ; and we think Ministers are highly to be commended for yielding to conviction. It was natural for them, when introducing a bullion currency into England, to wish that Scotland should have the same circulating medium. Many of the ablest of their political opponents agreed with them in this opinion, which they expressed strongly no doubt. The petitions from Scotland, however, were so nu merous and so convincing, that it was impossible to refuse a Committee ; and the majority of that Com mittee (not Ministers) have been brought over by evidence to object to any change. In this decision we heartily rejoice, being satisfied that the inevitable consequence of such a contraction in the currency as must have taken place, would have been most inju rious to Scotland, by checking all the improvements now going forward in that country. But we have already given our ideas fully on this subject, and there fore need not repeat them. From what has taken place with regard to Scotland, we cannot help indulg ing a hope that Government will be induced to recon sider the first view which they took of the remedies to be applied to the state of the currency in England. We have inserted in smother part of our Paper the Articles of Capitulation of the Fortress of Callao, the surrender of which to the united forces of Peru, Chili, and `Colombia, we announced yesterday. The garrison, at the time of its surrender, was reduced to abOut .. soo men, and General , Ropm was making, af , rarigements for his departure for Europe. The de fence which this Officer has so long carried on, has been in the highest degree honourable to himself, but has proved of no use to the cause of Old Spain in South America. Not a yard of that immense t tory which she possessed, remains to her now in the New World.! The fall of. Callao must be considered as an event of much importar ce ,_ as being the close of a struggle for Independence of unexampled extent and duration, and the commencement of a . period of Peace to the Infant States of South America. The effects of this great Revolution which has been thus terminated, on the condition of mankind, though already consider able, cannot yet be fully calculated. -.__-....a55 i g... --- Some of the advocates for free trade carry their notions to such extremes, that, without considering the probable future results of their measures, they would, for a present benefit, risk the permanent interests of the Nation. Mr. HUME has given notice that he will, to-morrow, move a That the exportation of ma chinery be allowed on the same footing as all other manufactures." With regard to this question, there is much to be said on both sides. Liberality is tin the side of general freedom in trade ; but fortunately: we have a Government not so liberal as to throw power into the scale of other nations, nor so disin terested -as to abandon our best interests.to the rest of the world. We are at, present, as regards com merce, first among the list of nations, and no branch of manufacture has contributed so, much to our pre eminence as that of cotton. To nothing are we so much indebted for our superiority in this extensive trade, as to the unrivalled state of our machinery, for as Mr. HUSKISSON justly stated in the House of Commons, in reference to the cotton trade, , 4 there is not any .thing in the history .of commerce, any. thing in the history of our manufacturing prosperity, that can at all compare with it." The same Right Hon. Gentleman, whose information cannot be questioned, estimates that the: amount paid for the raw material, does not exceed 5,000,0001., whilst the annual value of the produce is 82,000,0001., leaving 27,600,0001. for the profit of the manufacturer, and wages of la bour,—a ,fact which must astound those who have not considered the value of this important ' branch of commerce,—a branch which. gives employment to one million two hundred thousand persons. Now, is this .superiorlty• to, be 'frittered away by supply ing to all other nations the means of competing with us ? and that too with no other arguments in its favour than the empty' satisfaction of becoming ultra liberal, and benefittmg the Machine makers, now un employed, who, in point of numbers, form but a small . proportion to those •‘, in work," and still less to the, twelve hundred thousand , t hands" `employed in the Cotton trade ? What would be the effect of export ing machinery ?

In moving the Commitment o f the Criminal Justice Bill in the House of Peers last night, Lord LIVER :root, mentioned a eircumAance which forcibly de monstrates the necessity of a revision of the Game Laws. It appears, by the Returns lately printed re lative to the increase of Crime, which though less heinous in character, has been far greater in amount in the last, than in the preceding, seven years, that the balance of morality is in favour of the Manufacturing over•the Agricultural Districts. With these facts staring us in the face, which the Noble Earl admitted might be owing to the laws re specting Game, we trust that one~ of the first mea sures of the •new Parliament will be to enter upon the Revision of these Laws, which are not less unjust in PrinCiple, and inefficient in operation, than injurious to the morals and habits of the lower - orders of the people: The variety of matter which occupied the attention of the House of Commons last night, obliges us to restrict our observations upon the leading topics of fliscussion. Lord Ram RUSSELL presented a Petition from the supply of equal advantages .to Foreigners,--and, secondly, in having themselves, to pay more for the machinery required at home. It must be obvious that if Foreigners can " get up" machinery Cheaper than ourselves, we shall, in case of exporta tion, have the satisfactory advantage of sup plying them with patterns, 'which 'will facilitate their operations, and which, as was the case with Scot land, their own workmen will not only manufacture for them, but also for the very people from whom they derived their first supplies. If we continue the prohibition, and watch, with increased vigilance, the offenders against the law, it will take centuries to rival us in that species of manufacture; but remove the re strictions, and we decline from that moment. Mr. KENNEDY, in a letter to the Honourable E. G. STANLEY, M.P. on this subject, says ' the exporta tion of machinery absolutely compels the foreign manu facturer to posSess the means of becoming his own ma chine-maker, and the more Machines you send, the yeater number of mechanics will be required to keep them in order ;" and further, lie remarks, in reference to the complaint, " that mechanics arc now inveigled out with tools, &c." that in case 'of exportation, mechanics with their tools must be ultimately employed) not only in repairing the existing machines, but also in the making of new ones." We may? resume this subject ; but in the mean time we protest against the exercise of liberality, which would cause the infliction of so serious an injury on the commerce of the United Kingdom. Our private accounts from Manchester, represent that town and the surrounding districts as perfectly tranquil. The timely subscriptions so spontaneously entered into for their relief, have produced the most beneficial effects. We understand that it is probable that Major- General. Sir Neil Campbell will succeed the late Ge neral Turner as Governor of Sierra Leone and its dependencies. The Duke of Devonshire embarked on board the Comet steam vessel, off the Tower, yesterday after noon, and proceeded down the river to the Glou cester. No account of his Grace's arrival on board that ship has yet been received in town. Letters have been received from New York to the 18th April, and we are sorry to add, without bringing any accounts of the Crisis, Captain VAN DYKE, which vessel sailed from Cowes on the 11th January, with a considerable number of passengers, so that great fears are entertained for her safety. The following is an extract of a letter received in :own yesterday, dated Leghorn, April 26 I have just received a letter from Venice, in which - as- sures me for certain, that the siege of Missolonghi has been raised, and that Ibrahim has retreated to Patras. It is even said that he is mortally wounded." Another letter states, that the above news had been brought to Trieste on the 27th of April by an Austrian Govern ment vessel, which left Zante on the 10th ; and that the Greek fleet, under the command of Miaulis, had arrived before Missolonghi. By the following extract from the German Papers which arrived this morning, it will be seen that the power of the Emperor of RUSSIA, and his indepen- dence of the constituted Authorities, are placed their true, but absolute colours : FROM THE BANKS OF THE MAINE, MAT I. (Extract from a Private Letter.) " Having been settled in Russia fur a qUarter of a century, and having returned only a few weeks ago to iny native place on family business, I find it difficult to conceive, when I read the news papers, how the much enlightened countries in Europe can have remained so ignorant A s they arc of the most simple and notorious facts relative to the institution* of my adopted country. Recollect ing the memorable events which principally under the late reign have drawn Russia and the other Stated of the Continent nearer together, I might be allowed to believe that a knowledge of the Russian nation and Government, formerly confined to n few tra vellers, was now, generally diffused among well informed persons. lint I:now. see more than ever that there are impressions which most men do not easily renounce, viz., those which leave in their minds ideas attached to certain denotninaCens. Thus, fits in , stance, • the English Papers, and after them the French, which tr.mslate them continually, describe the Senate of St.' Petershurgh as a representative body, for no other reason certainly than that it bears the name of Senate : they seem to . be 'ignorant that the members of that body, named by the Sovereign, paid by him,-and removable at his pleasure, 6ve in their collective capacity none of the elements of a representative body ; and besides, it is evident that a tribunal, the business 'of which is to judge in civil and cri ' minal affairs, to take cognizance of and to publish the ukases of • the Emperor, and to control in one of its sections only the accounts and contracts of some of the functionaries of the Government, has THE FUNDS. City, 12 o'clock this day. in its nature no concern with the ordinary affairs of the internal administration, or with the alterations and improvements of which it may be perceptible. The first are confided to a Committee of the Ministers which sits at St. Petersburgh. As for the plans re lative to the administration and measures to be adopted on im portant occasions, the diseussion of them is reserved to the Coon cil of State, called the. Council of the Empire, when the Sovereign is pleased to ask the advice of its Members. This Council is also a Court of Appeal, to decide, in the last instance, on causes al ready'brought before the Senate, when the decision has not had in its favour 'two-thirds of the vote►, or when the Emperor orders them to be reconsidered ; yet, neither the Council of the Empire, notwithstanding its high rank among the public functionaries, nor the Senate, have the smallest share in the deliberations on matters relating to foreign policy, which depend exclusively on the will of the Sovereign. • " It is evident, therefore, that the pretended Counsels given 14 the Senators fur the preservation of peace, with which the public journals have been filled, and their opinions respecting the legiti macy of the insurrection of the Greeks, must appear quite absurd to all readers who have some acquaintance with the Russian Government. Without, houtever, ascribing to the writers an intention to mislead their subscribers, we may, however, advise them to speak less positively, and to consult before they write the numerous travellers who have visited the country, and what would be still better, those who have resided in it. MUNICH', AMU. 28. This afternoon a deputation of the Magistrates of this city had the honour of waiting on his Majesty by his special desire, when he was pleased to inform them that it was finally determined to remove the university of Landshut to Munich, and that he was happy to communicate to them a decision which would he so ad vantageous to the city. That Landshut would be indemnified for the loss, and on the other hand, the collections of works of art, the libraries, the botanic garden, the iubnirably regulated hospital, and other public establishments, would be a great advantage to the University, the prosperity of which his Majesty was resolved to promote by every means in his power.

In the House of Lords this day, the LORD CHAN CELLOR took a brief view of the Fife case, and said that he 'would give final judgment on the third sitting of the House after the Whitsuntide Recess. The case of Fletcher V . Londes, in which judgment was to be given to-morrow, is adjourned to Thursday COURT OF KING'S BENCH—(Tuts D.tY. ) LEACH V. BARRAT. This was an action to recover compensation for an oppressive distress for rent. It appeared that the plaintiff had been a weekly lodger in the defendant's house, and owed 81. ss. for which all his furniture to the value of 401. had been distrained, and sold by pri vate contract for 81. 15s. Independently of the dis tress being excessive and illegally disposed of, the con duct of the landlord and his agents towards the plain tiff was attended with aggravated circumstances. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff— Damages 301. ROLLS COURT —(Tuts DAT.) GRAVES V. lIEARLE. In this case, a Gentleman of the name of John Hicks, died in 1825,possessed of considerable estates in Cornwall and Bucks, and leaving a will, by which he gave a life interest in part of the estates to his daughter, the defendant, with the remainder to his grandson (by another daughter) the plaintiff. The plaintiff, by his next of kin (being an infant) applied some time ago to the Court for an injunction to re strain the defendant from cutting down timber, and praying that a receiver and woodman might be ap pointed. The injunction was granted, but the latter part of the prayer was refused. The plaintiff had ap pealed against that part of the prayer which had been refused and was now pending. The defendant now applied for a reference to the Master, to enquile whe ther it was necessary that certain trees should be cut for the purpose of repairs. Mr. HORNE appeared for Mrs. Hearle, the party now applying. Mr. SUGDEN, who appeared for the plaintiff, op posed the petition, and applied for the costs. Other Counsel appeared for the testator's widow, a co-defendant, who had an annuity charged on the estates, and who also asked for her costs. Mr. HOUNE said, the estates were charged with annuities to a greater amount by 4501. than the an nual income of the estates, which, for some time past, had been paid by Mrs. Heade. His LonnstirP said, this petition neither stated the nature of the suit, nor the state in which it was. He had, indeed, learnt from . the bar that the bill had been filed for the purpose of taking the usual accounts, and, as it had been stated on one side, and denied on the other, for the Court's decision upon the rights of the parties. The Vice-Chancellor had granted the injunction, and the present application was, merely by a side wind, to get an order modifying the injunction, or to dissolve it quo ad the timber which the Master might think'neces sary to be be cut. If any application was necessaryto have been made, it ought to have been made to the Vice-Chancellor, and therefore this department of the Court could do nothing but dismiss the present peti tion with costs, as against all parties. Earl Bathurst had an audience of his Majesty ye , ,- terday. The Earl of Harrowby, Viscount Melville, :I n d Mr. Huskisson, held a consultation yesterday alit r noon with Mr. Secretary Canning. Lieptenant Campbell arrived in town on Sunday with dispatches for Earl Bathurst, Secretary of State for the Colonial Department, from Sierra Leone, giving an account of the decease of Major-General Charles Turner, C. 8., Governor of that Colony. Mr. Smith, the King's Messenger, was sent'off yesterday afternoon, from the Foreign Office, with dispatches, which, it was understood, were for the Duke of Devonshire, Mr. S. having to proceed to the Nore to meet his Grace. Yesterday the Lord Mayor gave a grand dinner to the Lord Chief Justice Best, the Lord Chief Justice Abbott, Mr. Justice Park, Mr. Justice Burrows, Mr. Baron Graham, Aldermen Sir Charles Flower, Meg. nay, Garrett, Brown, mid Lucas ; the Recorder, Sheriffs Crowder and Kelly, Sergeants Vaughan, Bosanquet, Wilde, Jenkins, Cross, Spankie, &c. The Haymarket Company is about to receive a very considerable acquisition in the person of a Lady of the name of Pinder, who has beenlor some time of great and deserved provincial celebrity. She is a Lady by birth and education, who from her state of widowhood has been impelled to have recourse to the Stage as a means of livelihood for a young and inte resting family. She is highly spoken of, as well for her beauty as for her talents and fascinating manners, and is, besides, valued by those who know her as a most amiable and virtuous character. Accounts are stated to be in town from Cadiz, which mention that a fever of a most malignant kind had appeal:o on the Barbary coast, and that in conse quence the Spanish Authorities had prohibited all in tercourse with the infected districts. There is no truth in the reported removal of our Ambassador from Vienna ; nor has his rtaidiency quitted' that capital for , England. The mistako must 'have arisen from the departure of Lady Georgiana ‘Vellesley, who arrived in London this day se'nnight, on a visit to her mother, the Dowager Marchioness of Salisbury.

A very numerous Meeting of the inhabitants of Lambeth was held in the National School Room, for the purpose of entering into subscriptions on behalf of the suffering Manufacturers. Dr. D'Ormtv being called to the Chair, stated that this meeting had been convened in pumance of a requisition, very respectably signed, addressed to the Parochial Authorities, for the purpose of adopting some means for raising subscriptions for the relief of the vast numbers of the working classes, now des titute of employment. The object was one purely so philanthropic that it required no advocacy to recommend it to public notice.— , Some gentlemen present were prepared to submit a few resolu tions, expressive of the feeling which was now so generally enter tained on this interesting topic. A number of resolution* were theu adopted, and a considerable collection was made in the room . ; after which a Committee or Collection was appointed, and; 'thanks being voted to the Chair man, the Meeting broke up. Extract from a letter, dated Alexandria, March 4, 1826 ;—‘, There has been no activity in our Cotton Market since I wrote last. We are not aware'of single bale having been purchased for England subse quent to the 4,000 last advised. The price contames fixed at 18 per cantur, but the Pacha refuses to enter into further contracts for the present, as it is appre hended that not more than half the expected crop can be gathered in for the want of hands ; and it is more than probable, as the summer draws on, another conscription will be made to support the war in Greece.
